They are never going to compensate the artists. It's cheaper to hire 1000 designers to make 100000 images of artistic styles they are going for

I think you underestimate the scale of data these models are trained on by many orders of magnitude.

I suspect you might be able to get pretty good results by training the system on video/CGI/other images that can be easily mass produced, then fine-tuning on a much smaller number of drawings and other stylized images.

uhm. What you are proposing is compensating the artists. Those 1000 designers are the artist in question then.

I bet that you are massively underestimating the cost of that.
